Laying the foundation for successful team performance trajectories: The roles of team charters and performance strategies.

Abstract: This study examined the influences of team charters and performance strategies on the performance trajectories of 32 teams of master's of business administration students competing in a business strategy simulation over time. The authors extended existing theory on team development by demonstrating that devoting time to laying a foundation for both teamwork (i.e., team charters) and taskwork (performance strategies) can pay dividends in terms of more effective team performance over time.

“…The development of these agreements may prompt the group to clarify important issues such as group members' roles and responsibilities as well as their task related abilities and work styles (Mathieu & Rapp, 2009). If such agreements are reached during the early formative stage, they can facilitate subsequent collective action (Mathieu & Rapp, 2009). In other words, during the early stages groups may be concerned primarily with planning for the future while in the later stage they may focus more intently on task execution as the deadline nears (Okhuysen & Waller, 2002).…”

“…During the early phase, effective teams may also reach explicit agreements about how the group will work together to complete tasks in a timely manner (Mathieu & Rapp, 2009). The development of these agreements may prompt the group to clarify important issues such as group members' roles and responsibilities as well as their task related abilities and work styles (Mathieu & Rapp, 2009). If such agreements are reached during the early formative stage, they can facilitate subsequent collective action (Mathieu & Rapp, 2009).…”
